In My Mind

I've always had a passion for the rhymes and the beats
A vision of becoming something more I could ever believe
Got to feeling the motion but I started to stray
I stumbled into the ocean and life got in the way
Invisible chains with routine grained in the brain
I got to get that paper and major but a job didn't pay
Wage claimed and complacence reined in array
My dreams got put on the back burner
'Cause I listened to the people who are lack earners
With no disrespect, you only know what you know
But I'm still grateful, 'cause now I know what I know
Practice a flow and grew to my own
I learned a lot from teaching, now I'm producing from home
Built up my studio and became recluse to my zone
Still feeling kinda new with gradual releases in my catalogue
Loosening the noose around my throat and take what I've always battled for

If they wanna keep me down
That's ok with me
My desires scream so loud
I'mma be the best that I can be
I'mma keep it hella raw in my metaphors
Taking step by step I can never fall
I climbed so far to decline
I'm strong 'cause I'm alive In My Mind

I've been practicing practices in search of some answers
My skill set varies 'cause I raise up my standards
I'm more for the connect than I am for the cameras
My music is where I invest, my soul purpose before my departure
I used to sit structured with doubt on my mind
Now I move in align with divine time combined
with the thought and vision in mind
Decisions intwine with where I'm meant to be
So it keeps me creating even where it seems
I'm not seen to be
I just feel and breathe, drift and let go
And release in the breeze
My inner being keeping me safe and in ease
Grounded with source free from who may be out to deceive
Even if it is or isn't intended to be
I stay protected as I'm building on my legacy
My words are my recipe to a future of prosperity

If they wanna keep me down
That's ok with me
My desires scream so loud
I'mma be the best that I can be
I'mma keep it hella raw in my metaphors
Taking step by step I can never fall
I climbed so far to decline
I'm strong 'cause I'm alive In My Mind

You got to try harder in every chance that you're given
Act upon thoughts and follow intuition
Be you and do what you set out to do
Keep your good intent and let the power flow through
My wisdom comes from more than just age
The vision that runs came from stepping foot on the stage
Later it came, that people respected my ways
I used to confine my own mind now I'm working to change
Work ain't the same when perspective is changed
Get set in the centre of your flame
And feel the heat in your core
I guarantee you will never feel the same
When you've opened up your mind to begin to start attracting much more
I was racking my brain
Pacing back and fore, to a negative state
I had to get definite in order to escape
I was fed up
Now I'm on top of my world fully embraced

If they wanna keep me down
That's ok with me
My desires scream so loud
I'mma be the best that I can be
I'mma keep it hella raw in my metaphors
Taking step by step I can never fall
I climbed so far to decline
I'm strong 'cause I'm alive In My Mind
